I've partially installed koha-3.00.00-stableRC1 on a Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.4 Darwin 9.4.0, and apache-2.2.9. Apachectl is accepting directives. However, the Koha install instructions for 3.00.00 say...

6. sudo a2enmod rewrite 7. sudo a2ensite koha && /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

and I can't find these utilities amongst the Apache stuff downloaded, nor on the apache.org site (but I think I am getting punchy). I gather that they just copy config information into subdirectories of /etc/apache2.... but what info and from where?

Those two scripts may be pretty specific to debian, but what they do is: 6 - enable mod_rewrite. This is probably done in your /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file already. It probably looks something like: LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.s so, you're probably already done there. 7 - get the etc/koha/koha.conf file into apache and restart it. I think OSX does this by putting files in /etc/apache2/other. copy the etc/koha/koha.conf file there and restart apache. You may have to edit that configuration file a bit, OSX is a little different than linux. If you get this working, please let us know. We would love to have an INSTALL.osx file. Hope it helps! -Andy

I tried install Koha on a Mac early on and finally gave up, blew away the Mac OS, and went with Ubuntu. John +--------------------------------------------------------------+ John Chadwick, Ed.D.
